Harry Brown

[DennisNedry]

Recorded this film recently and just watched it, wondered if anybody else here has and what they thought of it?

 

I think it was a great film, depicting some of the horrible scum that live in the worst council blocks well with some excellent acting. It had us all really behind Harry. Love a bit of vigilante justice!

[MooseBreath]

T'was a bit 'wooden' if you ask me. And the 'demograpic' depiction of those estates was wholly incorrect. But it seemed ok to me. A fine movie. A solid 6.8/10.

[Heart-Shaped Fox]

seen it loads of times, very much like Gran Torino (Clint Eastwood film) but this is the Enlgish version.

 

Good film

[Vacamion]

Mr Caine is a legend.

 

End of.

 

I think one of the best bits of dialogue was:

 

"Oi, Plan B, stop chucking those bladdy spears"

 

But I can't be sure.

[Kitchandro]

Just watched it.

 

It was good, I won't remember it for a long time but it was a good way to fill the void between basking in the glorious football results and Match Of The Day.

[21st Century Fox]

It's no Get Carter.

[VLC86]

Loved this film

[SystonFox]

Not seen it. Love gran Torino though as someone on the thread previously mentioned

[Raw Dykes]

I enjoyed it a lot. If you haven't seen them already, give Get Carter and Gran Torino a watch. Great revenge films. I only saw Taken fairly recently - another good one.

 

One of my favourites is Dead Man's Shoes by Shane Meadows (This is England). Anyone else seen that?

[Cruss5]

I like Dead Mans Shoes as well.  A budget film with Paddy Considine.  

 

Watched a documentary on Harry Brown and Michael Caine said he wanted it to be local with local actors and wanted to highlight the problems but over elaborate on it.  Whether its a bit wooden and not the best acting, i enjoyed it and would watch it again
